just tried to install Adobe Reader 7 from their web site http://www.adobe.com/products/reader/productinfo/systemreqs/ but got errors when running Alien [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/src$ sudo alien --scripts AdobeReader_enu-8.1.2-1.i486.rpm mkdir: cannot create directory `AdobeReader_enu-8.1.2': File exists Package build failed.
